Is gtown known to match FA packages/give out scholarships?

Curious to know the answer to this too!

I spoke with financial aid the other day who told me all institutional funds have already been dispersed, so even if they have some money reserved for late acceptances, I think it unlikely they will match packages.

For those that are waitlisted, it says "You may continue to submit letters of interest until the waitlist is officially closed." Did anyone send more than one? If so, are you saying you are interested and intend to attend multiple times? I guess I am confused why they accept more than one LOI. Is it so that we can continue updating them?

 

[Aureliano Buendía]

Has anyone heard back from the Sarah Stewart app? Also, has anyone been able to find this year's match list? It seems from past years that they usually release it in early April.

Last year it was released late April, a couple days before April 30th so I think it just depends on how many applicants there was this year

 

[AnotherPre-med]

Do you guys think people who get a late acceptance off the waitlist will be considered for FA packages and scholarships?

 

[RelativeAnxiety]

been waitlisted since October and losing hope

 

[Boson12]

Same lol. So far waitlist movement has been almost nonexistent

 

[sweatysweetpotato79]

been waitlisted since October and losing hope

I am too, but I'm trying to stay as positive as I can! Fingers crossed for us.

 

[GrainofSalt]

Been on waitlist since January. Everyday is a struggle

 

[sadjpog]

Things should be speeding up soon given the April 15th and April 30th traffic rules.

 

[FiveLeafClover]

Was accepted off the waitlist last year in early May, and I have many classmates who were accepted later than that. It takes some time.

 

[snapster]

Withdrew my acceptance from Gtown on Friday, as they do not provide merit based aid. Good luck to those still waiting to hear back ! Hope my spot goes to someone deserving and who really wants it.

When calls do come out, around what time are they? Trying to control my anxiety so that I don't freak out 24/7 during the next few weeks 😅

Has anyone reached out to ask when we will hear back about the Sarah Stewart scholarship this year?

I did and was told that they were hoping to notify the recipients during or before the week of April 18th

 

[cleopatradoc]

RIP Sarah Stewart scholarship lol

 

[misterblahblahblah]

Got the “we loved reading your essay” email for Sarah scholarship.

How many SMP students usually get accepted?

I think it changes every year so I’m not sure, it’s a combo of current and former SMPs

gotcha, what about the WL movement?

 

[med-or-bust]

All I know is SMPs get waitlisted too, I have no idea if there’s a preference for us over non-SMP applicants at that point But it seems like Georgetown has pretty good waitlist movement starting in late April/May in general!

Dang i didnt know SMPs got Wled too. Sorry to hear that . but let's hope the waitlist starts moving in a week or 2!

 

[AnotherPre-med]

I would assume around 40 - 60 SMP students would get accepted.

This is not true at all lol much lower than that. That’s like half the class

Oh okay, I remember the faculty stating that about 75 Ppl (if you get the 3.5 cut off) get an interview and about 30 - 40 get in from the current class and 20 from previous classes. I could be completely wrong - I apologize!

Wow! I'm assuming once the SMP students get accepted, the class is most likely full. Rip

We still have a good chance! Georgetown is known to have good waitlist movement.
I hope we all get in 😭

30-40 acceptances sounds about right!

 

[zbdadazb]

Tough decision but just withdrew my A, good luck everyone!

 

[DonutDonut]

Accepted today from the SMP. Shout out to SMP fam reading this. Best of luck <3

 

[canijust]

Random question here for people accepted off the WL. Did you just receive an acceptance via call/email or did Georgetown ask you if you were still interested in the school?

 

[CosmicClev1]

This is for the SMPs in the next cycle who are coming back to this page to get an idea of when acceptances might come: I got my acceptance yesterday (Wednesday, April 28th) at 4:37pm. Acceptance came via phone call and I honestly couldn't tell you what was said other than I was accepted. Must have blacked out for the rest. I was on 4 WLs already with no acceptance yet and I was really expecting a WL here. Feels good to finally get the A. Need the email before I can fully believe it wasn't some elaborate prank.

I received a call from the dean when I got off the waitlist and was accepted, and then received the email the next day! I also had about 10 days to accept the offer on the portal

[AnotherPre-med]

Whats smp?

special masters in physiology! Their course is similar to the first year of MD classes but is a master's degree.

 

[Aureliano Buendía]

Sorry if this is a naive question but for those that got need-based aid, is that same amount received guaranteed for each following year as well?

Can confirm, had a dollar amount granted and they said it was granted every year, for the full 4 years
